All your points arguably hold up except this one I think. Most humans think war is bad, especially ones who have experienced war, and war gods in historic cultures are very often bad/evil gods - them and greed-type gods tend to be the most "evil" gods in real pantheons. You often get a distinction between the "victory" or "military brilliance" god and the "war" god too.Everyone Wars. It's the geopolitical version of pooping.
